The last time I planned to make wontons, I realised at the last minute I didn’t have any Wonton Wrappers in my freezer, and I couldn’t drive to the Asian grocery store to get new ones. Devastated, I called my friend to see what I could do and she simply said: “Why not make your own?” Why not, indeed? I had always assumed that it would be very difficult to make wonton wrappers from scratch, but how happy was I to be proved wrong!
All you need to make your own wrappers is egg, water, flour and some salt. Start by mixing dry ingredients together. Slowly add a mixture of egg and water and bring together to form a dough. Knead the dough and divide in two. Leave to rest under a damp towel before dividing into smaller pieces. Use these whenever you have a recipe that requires wonton wrappers.
To make the Wonton Wrappers, you will need the following ingredients:
Mix one egg with ⅓ cup of water in a small bowl.
In a separate, larger bowl, combine 2 cups of flour with ½ a teaspoon of salt.
Create a well in the center of the flour. Carefully pour in the egg and water mixture. Bring together and mix well. If the dough is too dry, add water one teaspoon at a time until a pliable dough has formed.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead until the dough is elastic. Cut into two similar sized balls.
Cover the dough with a damp towel and allow to rest for about 10 minutes.
Cut each of the dough balls into four equal pieces. Roll the pieces into 10½ by 10½ inch squares and cut each one of those into nine 3½ by 3 ½ inch squares.
Use these in any recipe that calls for wonton wrappers.

Hice mis propios wonton wrappers cuando olvidé comprarlos. Nunca pensé que sería tan fácil. Solo usé harina, huevo y agua. La textura fue perfecta, y mis amigos estaban impresionados. ¡Realmente una gran sorpresa! Ahora siempre los haré yo mismo, mucho mejor que comprados.
